I received my block from them on monday. It is excellent, exactly what i expected. It wobbles a bit on the base, but that is a quick fix. I was very pleased, and i would not hesitate to buy from Kirk again. I highly recommend them.

I just bought his rotating ring perch. My sponsor is very pleased with the construction and design. I also bought one of his traps. I had planned to make my own but due to an injury dealing with tying nooses and making a good trap were not working out even with a friend trying to help. His trap is very well made and looks great. I'm eager to try it out.
When I get my bird I'll post some pics of it on it's perch.
I liked the fact it was convertible from a base to a spike. I can see I'll have to be careful not to cross thread it. But other than that, the leash is tied low and it feels nice and solid.
Kirk has been good at communicating and I'd buy from him again.

I ordered 2 more perches. A block perch for the Screech Owl and another rotating ring for the imprint Kestrel. He's sitting on what was to be my bird's perch He does well on it. I'll see what my w/c Kestrel prefers ring or block. I'm assuming ring but we'll see. Matt M. and many Kestrel folks use mini bow perches for their birds.

These are rotating ring perches with the tie down that rotates freely as well plus they convert from a flat base to a spike. So far my Kestrel has only managed to tie up his leash once, and not badly. So I'm happy with it. Plus you cannot pull the ring off the base. The bird cannot tip it at all that I can see. It ties low.
My sponsor is picky on perches and we thought it was not a bad price for being convertible and well made.

I just ordered a small ring perch for my sharpie a Lf2 merlin transmitter, a buttonless leash and 2 small swivels. He has some excellent prices the best Ive seen!
anyone have their phone number, I ordered a spike a while ago and wanted to check on it.

I just bought a second block perch from Kirk at the meet. Meet price plus he is friends with my sponsor jk just a meet price. He makes great perches that will last for a long time. He is a die hard bow hunter so sometimes it might take a while for a custom perch (colors) that he doesn't have made already, because he is on a hunting trip.
